1N5235B-TR

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N5235B-TR is a silicon planar power Zener diode with a nominal voltage of 6.8 V and a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW. It features a standard ±5% tolerance indicated by the 'B' suffix, housed in a DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass axial package. The device operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C, with a test current of 20 mA and a dynamic impedance of 5 Ω at that current.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon planar technology for robust voltage regulation
• Provides stable reference voltages across a wide thermal operating range
• Offers standardized ±5% voltage tolerance for general-purpose applications

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage stabilization circuits
• Reference voltage generation
• Overvoltage protection

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code matches the required tolerance level, as the 'B' suffix denotes ±5%. Confirm the trailing '-TR' indicates reel packaging. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for your assembly process. Cross-reference the document number 85588 for the latest electrical specifications before finalizing procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6.8 V reference is needed with moderate precision. The DO-35 package suits through-hole designs requiring high thermal stability up to 175 °C. Consider the 5 Ω dynamic impedance for load regulation requirements. Verify lead length constraints against the specified thermal resistance characteristics.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5221 to 1N5267 series of small signal Zener diodes manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. The series covers a broad voltage range from 2.4 V to 75 V, all sharing similar physical dimensions and thermal characteristics within the DO-35 package family.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other manufacturers' 1N5235B variants or equivalent parts within the 1N52xxB series offering identical 6.8 V ratings and DO-35 packages. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values match the original design constraints.
